Great peak and view. Sometimes there is a lot going on up there, but there is always a small place to rest in peace and quiet.

There's hardly a more beautiful hut in this area than the Reichenhaller Haus. Despite the arduous climb and the deprivation of washing due to a lack of water, you'll be rewarded with one of the most beautiful views anywhere.
